Brinsworth House

Brinsworth House is a residential and nursing retirement home for theatre and entertainment professionals[1] on Staines Road, Twickenham, in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, England.

The house is owned and run by the Royal Variety Charity and has 36 bedrooms, six living rooms, a library, an in-house bar and stage, and a staff of 64.

Brinsworth House was built in 1850; it opened as a retirement home in 1911.

[1] The theatre architect Frank Matcham, in 1912, designed a wing at the house free of charge in aid of the fund.

The charity and the house are funded by the Royal Variety Performance, by voluntary donations and, since 2007, by part-proceeds from phone voting from ITV Network's Britain's Got Talent.
